Haloperidol induces Fos and related molecules (Fos-related antigens, FRAs) in adult striatal neurons. We tested whether a similar induction of Fos and FRAs by haloperidol injection would occur in fetal striatal neurons transplanted into adult quinolinic acid-lesioned striatum. We found that Fos and FRAs were induced in striatal neurons after haloperidol. This induction had a time course in transplanted neurons that was identical to the time course of induction in normal adult striatum. Furthermore, the relative numbers of Fos- and FRA-immunopositive neurons induced by haloperidol were identical for both transplanted and normal striatal neurons. These results provide the first demonstration that neurons in intrastriatal grafts derived from fetal striatal primordia have similar intracellular biochemical characteristics to normal adult striatal neurons.

D003342	Corpus Striatum	Striped GRAY MATTER and WHITE MATTER consisting of the NEOSTRIATUM and paleostriatum (GLOBUS PALLIDUS). It is located in front of and lateral to the THALAMUS in each cerebral hemisphere. The gray substance is made up of the CAUDATE NUCLEUS and the lentiform nucleus (the latter consisting of the GLOBUS PALLIDUS and PUTAMEN). The WHITE MATTER is the INTERNAL CAPSULE.

D006220	Haloperidol	A phenyl-piperidinyl-butyrophenone that is used primarily to treat SCHIZOPHRENIA and other PSYCHOSES. It is also used in schizoaffective disorder, DELUSIONAL DISORDERS, ballism, and TOURETTE SYNDROME (a drug of choice) and occasionally as adjunctive therapy in INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY and the chorea of HUNTINGTON DISEASE. It is a potent antiemetic and is used in the treatment of intractable HICCUPS. (From AMA Drug Evaluations Annual, 1994, p279)	Haldol
D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
